An iPad made of platinum



They did it to the iPod Touch and the iPhone and now it is the turn of the iPad, but this time it is cast in solid platinum. Going with its Supreme range of luxury gadgets, this one is called the Platinum iPad Supreme Edition. This is a Wi-Fi + 3G 64GB version with 2700 grams of solid platinum casing. The icing on the cake is the Apple logo at the back as well as the top portion at the rear top is encrusted with 173 glittering I F diamonds, all individually set totaling 85.5ct. For those of you who had been complaining that the iPad is an expensive device, the Platinum iPad Supreme Edition is priced at GBP 299,995 or US$467,500.

A MacBook Air made of Platinum



Well, this is really unbelievable for me, but it seems that Stuart Hughes wants to cover all the Apple products and is upping the ante at the same time. So presenting, the MacBook Air Supreme Platinum Edition. Unlike the iPod Touch and iPad Supreme we have seen earlier, Stuart Hughes has gone full throttle on it with 7 kilograms of platinum the most expensive precious metal. Beautiful and classy, this is the most expensive MacBook Air you would lay your hands on. But you just can't lay your hands on this limited edition masterpiece of which only 5 will be produced, unless you are the son of a rich Russian oligarch or the oligarch himself, because it is priced at GBP 319,995 or US$500,000.

And finally the latest 24ct solid gold iPhone 4G



If you thought that Stuart Hughes forgot about the latest amongst iDevices, the iPhone 4, then you are mistaken. They started working on it no sooner than it had been released, painstakingly creating the original iPhone 4 chassis in 150 grams of solid 24ct gold. This iPhone 4 comes with a leather wallet made from real Ostrich foot and can hold up to four credit cards. Available in 32GB version unlocked legally for global use, you can get one for just GBP 21,995 or US$34,300

It's not that I've got the sour grapes syndrome but for being a so called fashionable accessory most of them would look out of place. The only exceptions would be the platinum coloured gadgets which would match anything perfectly.
